What is it you are thinking? Are you thinking about a tiny “class-of-classless” individuals, who are gradually but steadily drowning in the ice-cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean, amidst over 120,000 lifeguards? Then, you may not be too far from dreaming into the legal realm of lawyers with disabilities (LWDs) in Nigeria. But when you do awake, only then would you realise, perhaps to your considerable consternation, if not anger, that this is a reality much more than a dream. Since the present foundation of legal education and practice in Nigeria was laid in 1962 and the formation of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), persons with disabilities (PWDs) who dare to dream have literally struggled their way through the obstructive stairs of the Nigerian legal profession, from legal education to law practice, with very little or no significant support from the legal institutions, especially the Bar. Worse still, while LWDs are increasingly being isolated at the margin of the Bar, the exclusive ship of the NBA continues to malignantly cruise with the apparent connivance of other legal stakeholders, including but not limited to, the academia who are interested in all things and in everything but a scholarly investigation into the Bar and LWDs thereat. Or so it seems. It is, therefore, the dearth of research in this regard, coupled with the recent enactment of the Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities (Prohibition) Act, 2018 (DAPDA), and the need to ensure that LWDs actually benefit from the provisions therein, that necessarily invited some kind of enquiry into this neglected aspect of the Nigerian legal profession. From a prism of predominantly doctrinal methodology and a tiny spark of online survey, this paper undertakes an appraisal of the welfare and rights of LWDs under the Nigerian legal profession, particularly in terms of the schemes, legal and structural framework of the NBA, while also drawing from the experiences of other foreign jurisdictions where appropriate. Inter alia, the paper finds that there is no disability diversity and/or inclusion in the NBA, which has systematically excluded LWDs from its leadership structure. And responding to these findings, it makes various recommendations, including that the NBA should forthwith restructure its foundation for disability diversity by the creation of Lawyers with Disabilities Forum whose Chairperson and Secretary shall be members of the National Executive Committee. And conduct a national and/or Bar-wide survey to account for LWDs at the Bar. For what you cannot account for, you cannot care or cater for. Furthermore, in the spirit of the DAPDA which prioritises the welfare of PWDs, the NBA should influence or instigate the amendments of various laws and regulations affecting law practice in Nigeria to promote the welfare and rights of LWDs, including but not limited to, the Guidelines for the Conferment of Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SAN) 2017 to the effect that where the law is equal, that is to say, all other requirements satisfied, applicants for the rank of SAN who have, at least, a LWD in their employs should necessarily take precedence over their counterparts who do not.
